Browns favored vs. Jets; ends 18-game home underdog streak

With a combined record of 1-35-1 over their past 37 games, there hasn't been a lot to cheer for Cleveland Browns fans.

Maybe Las Vegas can change that.

On Thursday night, for the time since Week 14 of the 2015 season, the Browns are poised to be a home favorite. Johnny Manziel started that game and led Cleveland to a 24-10 victory over the San Francisco 49ers.

Since then, Cleveland has played 18 straight home games as an underdog, the third-longest streak in the last 15 seasons.

The Browns have only been favored once in that time span: a 2017 Week 3 road game against the Indianapolis Colts. Cleveland was a 1.5-point favorite, but lost the game 31-28 to Jacoby Brissett and the Colts.

The Browns are one of eight teams this season to be 2-0 against the spread.

Cleveland is currently a 3-point favorite against the New York Jets at Nevada sportsbooks. ESPN's FPI has the Browns favored by 3.8 points.
